Performance

Triathlon strength and conditioning, Sydney

Three sports, one body, one weekly load. The strength work has to serve all of it without adding fatigue where you cannot afford it.

The triathlete problem

Most triathletes are not short of training. They are short of room. Adding a gym session to a week that is already full only works if it is built to sit alongside the swim, bike and run rather than compete with them, which means the timing matters as much as the exercises.

How we build triathlon performance

Strength that carries across all three disciplines, workload managed as one number rather than three, and preparation that accounts for what a race actually demands of you in sequence. Sessions are placed against your training week, not dropped into it.

Who we work with

We are the official rehab and performance partner to NSW Triathlon, and we sponsor Balance Tri Club. Dave races the distance himself, which is not a qualification but does mean the programme is written by someone who has been through the parts of it that hurt.

In the gym

What a triathlon gym session looks like

Filmed at Five Dock with Balance Tri Club, the triathlon club we sponsor. Plyometrics, back squat and upper-back work — the strength that holds up across three disciplines.
